Register / View: The Power of Observation and Active Listening in Beer Sales

It’s no secret that competition is fierce in the craft beer space right now, so you’ve got to be strategic with your approach to retail beer sales. Whether it’s On or Off Premise, there are two selling tools that are vital to your success in connecting with buyers – observation and active listening. When you can learn to observe your environment, non-verbal cues, a buyer’s tone, speech rate, hidden opportunities and buying habits, you can learn to tailor your sales message for each account and make yourself stand out as a brewery representative that cares about the needs of that particular business. Active listening is a communication skill that is an elevated form of observation, and can be used in buying situations to build trust with your accounts. Learn how to utilize both tools in your sales activities, and you’ll be on the right path to building profitable relationships with your accounts.
